On December 1625 Peter Minuit Was elected governor and then now landed in New Amsterdam A lot of the Dutch traders found Manhattan. Also back then Manhattan would cost only 24$ Unbelievable right and now it cost about around 1.74 Trillion dollars to this day it would cost so much!!! Also The Manhattan Region is so rich!!also lots of raw materials but the fur is the most magnificent and fur would be delivered to Holland. May 1626 Peter Minuit Set up a meeting with a few Native American Chiefs/Leader for some of their land and they said yes.Another thing is lots of colonists had already gave away 7,000 beaver skins!!! That's so many skins than i can ever even count but even the first settlers were not actually "Dutch's like everyone else they were more of French people witch means that they speak French And i think Walloons from Holland .Also France was seeking for a better start!!!!.

Before, French wanted Manhattan but the Holland people on the ship scared the French by their cannons. The Dutch traders found the Manhattan region is rich with raw materials, especially furs, that could be shipped Holland for a profit. On December 1625, Peter Minuit was selected to be governor of New Netherland, and he arrived at New Amsterdam and offered to pay them "$24 worth of beads and "trinkets." If they will give him Manhattan and they agreed with New Netherland. But, a fun fact is that now if you try and buy it it will cost you  $1.74 Trillion! The first settlers weren't actually "Dutch" but French-speaking Walloons from Holland and Huguenots from France seeking a better life. Another thing is lots of colonists had already gave away 7,000 beaver skins!!! So intresting!

Dutch traders thought the land was very rich with raw materials and the americans bought the manhattan island(the whole island) for only 24 dollars and they thought that was a lot back then.

The Local Native American Leaders bought the land for $24 but now it costs 1.74 TRILLION dollars! $24 in the 1600s(When the American Leaders bought the Manhattan island)is equivalent to $1,686.89 to this day
